NEW YORK (AP) — The Big East is considering adding Boise State football to help bolster the conference’s chances of retaining its BCS automatic bid, though both sides still need to be persuaded that it’s the right move.
A college football official, who spoke Thursday to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the Big East’s plans, says some Big East presidents are resisting adding Boise State and the school itself has reservations about joining a conference in flux.
The Big East said earlier this week it would like to expand to 12 football schools.
